Bring your own Anthropic key

In this mode the Cannoli app talks to api.anthropic.com directly with your organization's API key. Cannoli never sees the key or the text, there are no Cannoli limits, and Anthropic's terms with you apply, including zero data retention if your organization has arranged it.

Set it up

1. Create an API key in the Anthropic Console (platform.claude.com) under an organization on Anthropic's Commercial Terms. A dedicated key for Cannoli makes revocation easy.
2. In Cannoli, open Settings → Mode → Bring your own key and paste the key. It is stored in your macOS Keychain and handed to the app's local engine; it is never written to config.json and never sent to Cannoli.
3. Costs land on your Anthropic bill. Enhanced notes cost a few cents per meeting.

Zero data retention

Anthropic offers zero data retention by arrangement with its sales team, per organization. If your organization has it, use Claude Opus 5.5 or Claude Sonnet 5.5 in Cannoli; Anthropic's Fable and Mythos models are excluded from zero data retention and are not offered in Cannoli for that reason.

Switching back

Choose Managed or Local-only in Settings at any time. Removing the key from Cannoli deletes it from the Keychain; revoke it in the Anthropic Console as well if you want to be sure.
